Oil painting from 1986 belonging to the Hominids cycle — the stylized figures created around 1976 as, in the artist's own words, "a parody of man".
Archetypal busts reduced to essential silhouettes, silent and immobile like herms, crowd the surface in a dense swarm. They represent contemporary man, pigeonholed, deprived of freedom and identity: a condition Cecconello felt was his own, born from a reflection on the alienation of technological civilization.…
The technique is vigorous: oil worked into a thick impasto, with directional brushstrokes that construct a tactile, geological surface. The palette of warm earth tones—ochre, bronze, antique rose, silvery gray—is interspersed with golden yellow accents that highlight the hominids' profiles like luminous ribs.
1986 is the year in which color returns to the forefront of Cecconello's work: the pictorial paste is fluid and compact at the same time, like a primordial magma from which the figures emerge and merge.
Gastone Cecconello (Vercelli, 1942) is an Italian artist with over fifty years of activity. His research develops through painting, sculpture, and mixed media, constructing a coherent and recognizable language based on symbolism, matter, and the figure of the hominid as a metaphor for the human condition. His work explores the relationship between the archaic and the contemporary, between memory, myth, and everyday reality, maintaining a constant tension between formal rigor and expressive force. In 2013, the monograph Alle origini del mito, edited by Lorella Giudici, was published, critically retracing the artist's entire career.
